Writer (and now Director) Mickey Rapkin began his career as a journalist for The New York Times, ELLE, Bon Appetit, and National Geographic Traveler before becoming a senior editor at GQ. His first book, Pitch Perfect, inspired the hit film series about a cappella singing. He is also the author of Theater Geek, It's Not a Bed, It's a Time Machine, and more. And now Mickey is on the shortlist for the Oscar for Best Live Action Short for his new film 'The Anne Frank Gift Shop'. We talk about writing, meeting with Elizabeth Banks, his foray into directing, having Selma Blair love your film, and so much more on a new Geekscape! Enjoy!
